1950 Census

J. Britt Franklin

I saw a note this morning which indicated there's still a review process going on for the 1950 Census. I cannot find anywhere in FamilySearch to assist with that project. How can I become involved in helping review previously indexed or reviewed records.

Thanks!

The note I saw, from the "What's Coming in 2023" newsletter says

In early 2023, FamilySearch will finish publishing the complete 1950 US Census online—including territories and schedules. It will likely be the most searched US genealogical collection online for the next decade.

That does not necessarily mean that indexing is continuing. More likely, it's programming and clean-up work behind the scenes.
